When: Fri., Jan. 8, 9 p.m. 2016

Durham trio Gainsay formed from the relics of local acts Bobby’s Fever and Saints Will Do to arrive at a union of Fugazi’s post-hardcore zigzags and Superchunk’s peppy pop. The trio’s self-titled August EP demonstrates a growing knack for crooked riffs and big hooks. —Bryan C. Reed
